Server snapshots?

Hello! I''ve got something I can''t figure out... maybe one of you guys could help med out. I''ve been reading alot of articles about network game programming (client/server) and come across this thing that you''re supposed to send "snapshots" from the server, say, 20/s. Now, are these snapshots the only thing the server send (in game), that is, one big packet that contains all the messages generated (example: moveobject, createobject, chat messages)? Thanks to anyone who can clear this thing up! /jaybee
